Babies born at Magee-Womens Hospital of UPMC who are in the hospital Christmas Day get a special memento to mark their holiday births – a stocking big enough to hold them and a hand-knit red-and-green cap made by knitters on UPMC’s Volunteer Services team.
Nurses at Magee have been organizing the annual event and giving away dozens of tiny hats for several years in an effort to bring holiday cheer to the families who celebrate their baby’s first Christmas with UPMC.
